DIY power cable questions


Hey there,

I’ve been looking into making my own power cables for a few components and it’s easy to find connectors for the IEC C13 and C15 receptacle configurations but I’ve not had much luck finding anything for C17 connectors that just have hot and neutral wires but no ground. Same for the NEMA 1-15P connectors. Way harder to find anything compared to the NEMA 5-15P versions. Anyone have any advice or info to share on this matter? I appreciate the help for sure.

Don’t pay bloated prices as many manufacturers’ profit margins are greater than 70% and up.  Cable manufacturers don’t have any secret sauce in their cables that aren’t available to you and me.  Also, many of the the cables being sold and their ‘technology’ are truly snake oil.
